Claiming white privilege doesn't really exist ironically embodies white privilege (which can be articulated by a black MP as much as anyone). The error the right make is that white privilege is not something you possess but something you lack (i.e. the disbenefits of racism). 
Some on the right obviously recognise this, hence the trope of the disadvantaged white working class which attempts to extend the disbenefits of classism to include reverse racism: the idea that some white people are the victims of (the liberal elite's) racial prejudice.
Critical race theory is not an ideology but a way of approaching ideology. This is not to say that it can't embody ideological priors, but that treating it as an ideology in its own right is a category error, like calling a football commentator a professional footballer.
BLM is not inherently anti-capitalist, even though it leans that way. This is because black people are disproportionately working class & thus more likely to be suspicious of capitalism. To deny this is itself ideological: the belief socialism is repellent to the working class.
The contradiction between the trope of the white working class, which accepts that the working class bit has an effect, and the claim that BLM is illegitimate because it does the same, is obvious, but internal consistency is not a hallmark of the right (a critical theory axiom).
